The four groups comprising the 14 categories are as follows:
· Nostalgia Top Fuel dragster
· Nostalgia Funny Car
· Group 1 (4 categories): A/Fuel, Junior Fuel A, Junior Fuel B, and AA/Gas Supercharged
· Group 2 (8 categories): Nostalgia Eliminator 1, Nostalgia Eliminator 2 and Nostalgia Eliminator 3; A Gas, B Gas, C Gas, and D Gas; and Hot Rod
Each of the seven events will feature at least two of the four groups and only the first two events – the March Meet at Bakersfield (March 7-9) and the So Cal Shootout at Fontana (April 18-20) – will feature all four.
“This series will benefit everyone from the racers to the Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports Museum,” said Steve Gibbs, director, Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports Museum.
“It provides a great opportunity to preserve NHRA’s rich heritage through nostalgic drag racing competition.” There are already hundreds of “race-ready” drivers anxious to compete and racing will be conducted under existing, well-established NHRA nostalgia rules. The year-end champions in each of the 14 categories will earn the most coveted trophy in all of drag racing, the Wally.
